Take any AT&T family plan listed on their website. For a moment forget that you want iPhones. Find the plan that has the features, minutes, etc that you need. Add $30/month for each iPhone you want on the plan (in your case $60 for two). It's really that easy. The iPhone data plan is just bolted onto each line.

Thank you for clarifying. Now, divided by 2 the monthly cost is around $75 a piece. Thats better than the same items put on an individual plan ($90).

So with 3 iPhones it gets cheaper yet, only needing to add $30 for data, bringing the total up to $180, dividing that now by 3 gives $60 each person!!! (albeit with a mere 183 minutes for each person, before rollovers are added).

eawmp1 - yes that was also my thread with questions pertaining to the activation process with the iPhone. I still plan on purchasing both simultaneously, however a dear friend of mine is switching to AT&T for the iPhone as well, and I offered a family plan to him. He thinks it's a good idea because we both get a cheaper rate. Now, about going into a brick-and-mortar AT&T store to chat face-to-face, I'd LOVE to! But the nearest one is well over an hour away from me, and I figured I could just as easily utilize the awesome tool of having internet forums at your fingertips. Connecting thousands of people across the world, they are simply a wealth of knowledge and can offer guidance when driving 3 hours round-trip is out of the question at this time. That is all..

The 3rd line won't be a simple $30 data add-on. They will also charge $10 for the line, monthly. So a 3rd iPhone will add $40/month to the phone bill, and some extra taxes and whatnot.

They charge a fee per phone for other things too. Like a $10 fee every month for each phone sharing the minutes plan. Be very careful to get an 'out the door' price quote so you'll know just what you're getting into.
